This is really helpful. The modified pattern now replaces the default, but the final selection now contains 1 too many characters at each selection point.

Edit: @kezhengjie I found the fix.

In NumInserter.ts, change

                        newSelections.push(new vscode.Selection(
                            selections[i].start.line,
                            selections[i].start.character,
                            selections[i].end.line,
                            selections[i].end.character + str.length
                        ));

to

                        newSelections.push(new vscode.Selection(
                            selections[i].start.line,
                            selections[i].start.character,
                            selections[i].start.line,
                            selections[i].start.character + str.length
                        ));

As it is, it adds the length of the new text to the old selection rather than replacing it. I branched your repo and proved it out, but couldn't commit the branch to open a pull request. If this isn't the right way I apologize. I've never done this before (work with VSCode extensions, TypeScript or contributing to open source).

Edit 2:
Realized this does not solve the issue of selections within the same line, not sure what to do about that. :(
